What a fantastic first day at NCEA 2019! Chicago, Illinois is well-known worldwide as the home of the Cubs, the Bears, the Bulls, the Blackhawks, the White Sox and, of course, The Bean. For the next few days, though, this bustling city is also home of the 2019 National Catholic Education Association (NCEA) Convention & Expo! Our Sycamore team loves attending NCEA's annual event, which is the largest gathering of Catholic school educators in the world. Today, from our home-away-from-home (also known as Booth #1019 in the Expo Hall), we have enjoyed seeing and connecting with so many familiar faces and friends, and meeting new friends, too. Seeing so many educators from so many different places is a strong reminder of just how important their work is to the nearly 2 million students they serve in their schools. The first day of NCEA 2019 offered so many opportunities for fellowship, learning, and networking. The Opening Eucharistic Liturgy, delivered by Cardinal Blase J. Cupich, Archbishop of Chicago, served to focus hearts and minds on the mission of Catholic school educators. This year's keynote address during the opening ceremonies and general session featured Ann Garrido, whose topic was "Embracing Grace in the 21st Century Church." Her talk focused on the small 'graces' that sustain Catholic educators during challenging times. Ann has worked in the field of Catholic education for over 25 years, taught students of every grade level, has been a long-time faculty member at the Aquinas Institute of Theology, recently completed a visiting professorship at the University of Notre Dame, and is the author of eight books. In between exploring all the cool products and services in the expo hall, the first day of NCEA 2019 also included nearly 90 professional development sessions. Yes, you read that right—nearly 90 sessions in six (6) tracks, providing knowledge and insight into some powerful topics. It's inspiring to see how impactful and diverse this year's sessions are! Here's a small sampling of what was offered today: Administrator's Toolbox Track Developing Teacher Leaders Within Our Catholic Schools Rural Poverty and Urban Poverty: What They Teach Us National Standards and Benchmarks Inclusive Communities Track Panel Discussion: A Conversation On Racism Bilingual Education Models for Catholic Schools International Students in Catholic Schools Show Me the Data: Inclusion in Catholic Schools Innovation Track Metaverse: Augmented Reality for Classrooms and School Marketing Everyone Can Create: Ignite Creativity with iPad PBL and STEAM: The Dynamic Duo Missionary Discipleship Track Forming Disciples for a Digital Age Building Bridges Through Service The Principal: Manager, Magician, and Minister Teaching & Learning Track Enhancing the Student Experience Using AR/VR Meet the Millennial Parents What Young People Want You to Know (But Don't Tell You) Teaching About Religion in a Polarized Age Teaching Classic Novels for Social Justice Strategic Leadership Track Catholic School Governance: Understanding Authority, Roles, and Responsibilities Teacher's Legal Toolbox Wrapping up day one was the awards dinner. During this celebratory event, Debra Meyer-Myrum, principal of Holy Trinity Catholic School in Pierz, Minnesota, was honored as the recipient of the 2019 Lead, Learn, Proclaim Award from the National Catholic Education Association for dedication and commitment to excellence in Catholic education. This annual award honors those whose ministry is Catholic school education and who have demonstrated a strong Catholic educational philosophy as well as exceptional efforts, dedication, and achievements. Debra was chosen from more than 150, 000 teachers and administrators, as well as diocesan leaders and organizations dedicated to the nation's Catholic schools. As you can see in the photos below, it was a great first day for Sycamore Education at NCEA 2019!

Developed for use in middle and high school classrooms, Mission US engages students in the study of transformational moments in American history. Each mission consists of an interactive game and a set of curriculum materials that are aligned to national standards and feature document-based activities. The game immerses players in rich, historical settings and then empowers them to make choices that illuminate how ordinary people experienced the past. The Educator's Guide provides a wealth of resources and activities for both teachers and students, including primary source documents that show the broader social, political, and economic context of events and perspectives featured in the game. Since some of the topics Mission US explores are difficult, it is recommended that teachers/parents preview the game content to make sure it is appropriate for their students/children. LEARNING OBJECTIVESThe most recent National Assessment of Educational Progress showed that only 17% of eighth graders perform at or above the proficient level in American history. Mission US aims to get students to care about history by seeing it through the eyes of peers from the past. The goals of Mission US are to help students:• Learn how Americans struggled to realize the ideals of liberty and equality• Understand the role of ordinary men and women, including young people, in history• Develop historical empathy • Build understanding and critical perception to think like an historian.RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENTWNET collaborates with a multidisciplinary team to create Mission US. Much planning, research, review, and testing with diverse groups of teachers and students goes into the development and creation of each mission and its companion educational materials. Reflecting the latest academic scholarship and incorporating primary source documents, the history content for each mission is developed by a team of historians at the American Social History Project/Center for Media & Learning (ASHP), a research center at the City University of New York Graduate Center. Scholars with expertise in each era serve as advisors. Throughout the development process, researchers from the Center for Children and Technology/Education Development Center conduct focus group testing with students and teachers that helps the game development team address misconceptions about the content each mission explores. The game developer is Electric Funstuff, a company with extensive educational technology experience.SERIOUS GAMINGWinner of the Games for Change Award for Most Significant Impact, Mission US is part of a growing body of "serious games" that immerse users in historical and contemporary problems in ways that encourage perspective-taking, discussion, and weighing of multiple kinds of evidence. Research has shown that, by assuming the roles of peers from the past, students develop a more personal, memorable, and meaningful connection with complex historical content and context. MISSIONS“For Crown or Colony?” puts players in the shoes of Nat Wheeler, a printer’s apprentice in 1770 Boston. They encounter both Patriots and Loyalists, and when rising tensions result in the Boston Massacre, they must choose where their loyalties lie. A brand-new version of this game is now available! Learn more.In “Flight to Freedom, ” players take on the role of Lucy, a 14-year-old girl enslaved in Kentucky who escapes to Ohio. As Lucy joins a community of abolitionists, players discover that life in the “free” North is dangerous and difficult. In 1850, the Fugitive Slave Act threatens all African Americans in the North and brings new urgency to the anti-slavery movement.In “A Cheyenne Odyssey, ” players become Little Fox, a Northern Cheyenne boy whose life is changed by the encroachment of white settlers, railroads, and U.S. military expeditions. As buffalo diminish and the U.S. expands westward, players experience the Cheyenne's persistence through conflict and national transformation.In “City of Immigrants, ” players navigate New York’s Lower East Side as Lena, a young Jewish immigrant from Russia. Trying to save money to bring her parents to America, she works long hours in a factory for little money and gets caught up in the growing labor movement. In “Up from the Dust, ” players take on the roles of twins Frank and Ginny Dunn, whose family wheat farm is devastated by the Great Depression and Dust Bowl. As they experience the hardships of the 1930s, players learn about Americans’ strategies for survival – as individuals, communities, and a nation. “Up from the Dust” is available online and as free iPad and Windows 10 apps.IMPACTMultiple research studies have found using Mission US leads to measurable gains in students' historical knowledge and skills, and yielded positive feedback from teachers. Most recently, a major summative study by Education Development Center (EDC) found that students who studied the Great Depression and Dust Bowl using Mission US significantly outperformed those who studied these topics using typical materials on standardized measures of U.S. history knowledge and skill. The Mission US group showed a 14.9% knowledge gain from pretest to posttest; the other group’s gain was less than 1%. See Research and Evaluation for summaries of past Mission US studies. PRAISE FOR MISSION USWith well over two million registered users across the fifty states and beyond, Mission US continues to earn honors and praise from educators, parents, students, and critics.
